Where is a good location for a first timer? I want entertainment, access to metro, musuems, and resturants. Would like a nice luxury hotel, reasonably priced. Not too close to tourist area. Prefer to go places where the commoners live and frequent. Generally you can get better pricing on meals and entertainment. Also looking to take trip 2nd week of August, is this a good time? Are there such things as an all-inlcusive in paris france? Any help would be appreciated.

Hotels will normally just offer breakfast, for an extra charge, but there are restaurants and cafés everywhere, with menus posted outside so you can see what's on offer and the prices (price includes all taxes and service charge, so no need to tip).

Agree with Seanbee's rec (among other things), can also check the 3rd, 12th, 11th.

Murano Urban Resort is a chic modern hotel outside immediate centre, in regular area (which is perhaps what you meant) but with nightlife/places to go out right by. Hotel has popular bar.

Rasteriasha - you said if you had a choice you would choose another month other than August - we are travelling in July this year? My family, including our two children aged 13 and 10 are there from 3rd July for a week? Is it Hot? Crowded? Closed? I am new to this site so am still sifting through the thousands of posts!
